It should be automatic on par with the implementation of 7CPC to all employees for their monetary benefits. N meaning keeps on inviting employees repeatedly that too after 5 yrs of implementation. Also, the Govt should look into the pending /cases and process/implement them. Mine is the one example in ICF since 1996 ( 5CPC ) onwards in Integral Coach Factory, Ch 38. My repeated appeals wan initially rejected late in 1996 accepted on citing the circular recommended by admin but the FC ICF denied on monitory grounds and will pave way to many in 1995 (10yrs) !. On further re appealing and interviews the case was again the case was reopened again and identified as the only case and again recommended with the monitory difference chart &with the approval of FC/ ICF 2010. But the Board this time denied as no Scope. The total period was 15 years.
I retired in May 2010 and the case was left as such. ICF has failed to look into its recommended case of its employee and discontinued as I am retired and closed. without realising its responsibilities and the monitory loss to its own employee. I am appealing alone claiming justice for my eligible benefits. recommended to the Board one-sidedly. The loss to me is about 2.5/3 lakhs in service, settlement amount, a pension from 2010June and further from 2016 enhanced pension recommended to all pensioners. The Govt should look into the case and pay my arrears from my salary onwards with applicable interest as per rules. Will the Govt look in? Is there anyone for justice?
